The basketball position that most resembles the sweeper in soccer is the center. Both the sweeper and the center have roles that involve protecting their respective areas (the defensive half in soccer and the paint in basketball) and serve as a last line of defense against opponents. They both have to anticipate plays, provide defensive support, and often contribute to the team's overall strategy in transitioning from defense to offense.
Apply your previously acquired knowledge of soccer, and decide which position in basketball most resembles the sweeper in soccer.
